Taxes Made Lighter.
Through the instrumentality of Mr.
R. A. Lynch, the County Auditor, and
Mr. John Woolly, County Treasurer,
both of whom are likewise members of
the Equalization Board, the taxes now
assessed against tho peoplo of Edgefield
are very much reduced from tho taxes of
the last two years. Wc have , glanced
over the ? junty Treasurer's books, (a
privilege-by-the-way he is willing to al
low any one,) and were agreeably aston
ished at the comparison between the taxes
for last year and this. In many instances
they were less than one half of thcamount
required last year. Then gentlemen,
Messrs Auditor Lynch and Treasurer
Woolly, seem intent on discharging their
duty, and at the same time extort from
no man taxes not honestly due. And for
their consideration in behalf of the tax
payers, these gentlemen aro entitled to,
and are receiving, the thanks of the peo
ple. Go on, gentlemen, io thc discharge
of your duty, acting fairly and squarely
with all, and there will bc but little trou
ble in Edgefield about the collection or
payment of taxes.

A Net-Work of Railroads.
A warm spirit of Railroad enterprise
now seems to be animating tho people
throughout our own District and tho
bordering Districts. Some sections are
working for ono railroad scheme and
some for another, whilst most of the rail
road projocts contemplated are of prime
importance and very practicable. And
to see this unusual Railroad spirit per
vading the mindsof our people-although
the day of its rise may be considered lato
-fills us with interest and with hope.
With hope, because we are much of the
opinion that if all the routes proposed |
are not. speedily built, at least one or
moro of them will bo successful, and the
people to that extent will be benefitted.
We will now proceed to. mention the
different Railroad projects now engag
ing the attention of the public of Edge
field.
First, there is the Road from August^
or some point on the C. C. <fc A. R. R.
below Pine House Depot, via Edgefield
CE, Ninety-Six, and Laurens, to Spar
-tanburg. The charter for this Road will
be applied for. at the present session of |
the Legislatures and tho Road itself, in
these days of enterprise and progress, is
indispensable to the people along the
whole route. This Road would make
Edgefield District a grand field of wealth
and enlightenment, and would result in
incalculable benefit to our neighboring
and favorite city of Augusta, It would
undoubtedly bring back to Augusta thou
sands of rich customers and cotton sel
lers from Abbevillo, Laurens, and even
distant Spartanburg, to say nothing of |
Edgefield, who in former days made that
city their market, selling there their pro
duce, and buying there their plantation
and family supplies. This heavy busi
ness, which was diverted from Augusta
to Columbia by the Columbia <fc Green
ville Railroad, could be restored to her
by her. citizens meeting the present pro
ject in a prompt and liberal manner. If j
wo mistake not, we have heard it estima
ted lately that the amount of cotton this
Road would take to Augusta annually
would reach as high as? forty thousand
bales. And that this, at sixty dollars a
bale or thereabouts, would amount to
some two million and a quarter of dol
lars, a large portion of which would be
left annually with the merchants and
business men of the city. When the
charter shall have been obtained and
practical efforts set on foot in behalf ol'
this Road, we shall expect the said
merchants and business men to evince
their wonted sagacity and enterprise by
making a worthy effort to secure this
Two Million and a Quarter of Dollars.
Secondly, we notice tho Road from
Aiken via Edgefield C. H, to Ninety-Six
or Laurens. This route traverses a rich
portion of the State, with but few ..-lulls
and streams, and along a Une where a
Railroad could be laid at but moderate
cost. Such a Road would tend greatly
to building up and developing the coun
try along thc line, would bring us katu
more immediate connection witli the
ocean-a great desideratum to merchants
-and would prove highly beneficial to
Aiken, Charleston, and the S. C. Rail
road.
Thirdly, wo notice the proposed Rail
road from Greenwood, via Dom's Mines,
and on through the Dark Corner of oar
District, crossing the Savannah River at
Fury'st Ferry, and thence down the
Savannah Valley, to Augusta. This Road '
would pass through a country very fa- '
vorable for a railroad, and run through a 1
section that is now entirely without rail
road facilities, and whose people never
theless have from time immemorial tra
ded with Augusta, and who are sorely
inconvenienced in hauling their produce
jver many weary miles of the worst ! /
roads perhaps in the State, in order" to /
reach their market. By all means let j
Shem build this Road, ard tluL Dark
L'orner side of our District ^??1 soon
blossom as tho rose.
And last, but not least, is the grand j j.
scheme for a Railroad from Chester via
Newberry to Johnson's Depot on thc C. ]
C. ?V A. R. R., and thence via Edgefield i 1
C II. to Washington, Ga. This splendid ' 1
enterprise would place us on one of thc
greatest lines of thoroughfare, and would j 1
xt thc same time quickly develope a wide
scope ol' country very much in need of
Railroad facilities.
Efforts are being made to secure char
gers for the three first mentioned Road?,
md we hope ibo people of Newberry j ?
will at once strike out fora charter for j
the last-named enterprise.
ltcfore the lapse of many years wo
earnestly hope to see Railroads threading
sur country from North to South, and
from East to West. And for the town of
Edgefield and her immediate vicinity
sve promise Seventy-five or One Hundred
Thousand Dollars to any Road that shall
run through her, or very near by her.

THE SUCCESS OF THIS COMPANY IS UNPRECEDENTED in the
history of Life Insurance, as the following grade of success will show :
Policies Issued 28th March, 1867, ONE.
<k Sept. 1, 1869, 8,000
" Dec. 1,1871, 15,250
Its Plan of Insurance is Mutual,
Being the ONLY PLAN to get Insurance at its net cost. It has de
bared and paid to its Policy-Holders TH RISE ANNUAL DIVIDEND s
ranging from S? to 40 Per Cent?, which will compare favorably with
ither good Companies.
It fully provides for the non-forfeiture of its Policies, and has the following
feature: " Should the policy-holder, by any mishap or revolution, be sepa
rated from the home office, and thereby be prevented from paying their
premiums, they have the right to reinstate their Policies within one year
ifter the intervening cause h removed, and ure entitled lo Hie mme riyh's it*
0 non-forj"citareas thouyh i/ie hindering cause hud never existed, al thc opt-on nf
he insured," so that no contingency can take fr-in her policy-holders their
ust rights. The late war taught many in the South the penalty of being
1 'parated from the home office by having their payments forfeited,
It issues Policies payable in Gold or Currency, and offers every advan
age consistent with the safety of thc Company.
It has Wen in ACTIVE operation but four years, and yet its business and
ncome exceed many Companies much older. Its ratio of expense?to income
n 1870, as the following comparison siiows, was only 18.83 percent., being
ess than ONE-HALF the expense cf other Companies of like age and ex
perience.
Ratio of expenses to income in ISTOof tho following Companies, organized
n 1SG7, h?nce, are the same age as the PIEDMONT AND ARLINGTON :
Excelsior, N. Y. (samo age) 40.07 Standard, of N.T. (same age.) 30.37
Metropolitan, N. Y. (same ase, 4G.77 Union Central, Ohio, do. 32.43
Missouri Mutual, do ~ 28,90 Piedmont & Arlington, of Va. 1S.S3
We need not slop at Companies of our own age, but continue the com
parisons with Companies older :
Atlas, of St. Louis, Missouri, one year older, is 37.C0
Connecticut General, two years older, is 22.?1
Continental, Connecticut, three years older, is 23.GO
Globe, New York, three years older, is 24.33,
Guardian, New York, eight years older, is 2f?.?S
Hahneman, Ohio, two ye irs older, is 84.fl
Hartford Life and Annuity, one year older, is 34.59
Mutual, Illinois, two years older, is 23.13
National, New York, four years older, is 34.53
Security, New York, rive years older, is 24.87
Universal, New York, two years older, is 23.98
Widows and Orphans, New York, three years older, is 20.75
World, New YTork, one year elder, is 31.07
PIEDMONT AND ARLINGTON, OF VIRGINIA, 18.83
Its solvency cannot be doubted. As an evidence of its strength, we
make the following comparison with oilier good Companies; Companies that
ire acknowledged io be good, and recommended to the public as being
sound, safe and reliable, by all Insurance Commissions :
.Etna, $112 00 to each $100 it owes, or surplus of 12 pr cent.

ITS POLICIES ARE NOT SUBJECT TO EXECUTION.
As Section 15 of our Charter provides that Policies issued for the benefit of
(rives and families, ancestors, descendants, creditors, or dependents, shall
not be liable for the debts or contracte of the assured.
ITS INVESTMENTS ABE ALWAYS SECURE,
As Section 18 provides that " all permanent investments of funds shall be
Dn mortgages on Real Estate, unincumbered, worth double thc amount loaned."
Its investments are made where the money is obtained. Thus it combines
.ill the advantages of a home Company, and the increased security of its
large business and large assets.
Bissit has passed the rigid inspection of the Insurance Departments of
New York, Kentucky, Missouri and California, and has outside vouching of
these Insurance adepts which no other Sonthern Company has. It has now
therefore as high vouching as an> Northern or Western Company.
JgsT'It has progress to vouch for it? popularity, small expenses for its
economy, small losses for its caution, and every vouching any Company has
Tor its Sidid solvency.
Why should South Carolinians send money to those Northern Companies
whose State law ponilivcly forbids lending one dollar in the State,
when this Company, has chartered authority and has invested in their
midst? ' #

Stono Dissolved Phosphate, Cash, 25 00
On time till 1st Nov. 1872, 30 00
Stono Pure Ground Phosphate, Cash, 12 00
These Fertilizers have given such universal satisfaction in this communi
ty, and have spoken so well for themselves that there is little or nothing
left for me to say, as will be seen by reading the accompanying testimonials
from those who have used them.
STONO SOLUBLE GUANO is pronounced to be As Good as the
Best by persons who know of what they speak, and in every instance has
given complete satisfaction.
As to the results produced by the STONO DISSOLVED PHOSPHATE,
composted with Cotton Seed or Stable Manure, lean think of no word to
express them better thanone used by Maj. Coleman, in his certificate
below appended,tiz : They were truly wonderful.
In every ins'ance they produced effects equal to the most popular and
costly fertilizer.", and they ought to have done so. Although costing less
than one-half as much as the most popular and favorite Manures, they are,-j
really better, for they have double, or nearly double, the quantity of Bone
Phosphate, none of it having been displaced to supply Ammonia which the
Cotton Seed or Stable Manure supplies abundantly ; nor Salts to furnish
Potash, an ample supply being liberated from the clay by the huge quantity
of free acid in these Phosphates;-a quantity so large" that it will destroy1
Sacks in a very few days, compelling the Company, at more cost and trouble,
to ship entirely in barrels. This is not so of any other Phosphate in the
market.
At the very outset this Company put their PRICES AT THE LOWEST
FIGURES, being at the time and nearly so now, Fitly per ?cnt Less
than the prices of other Companies. And these low prices mad*1 many
persons, last season, reluctant to buy them, fearing that they would get an
inferior article, when the fact was that the Company could afford to do it,
for their Stock cost them just one hundred cents for the par dollar's worth,
whilst the Stock in many of the other Companies cost the present owners
from three hundred .0 four hundred cents for the par dollar's worth. The
Stono Company is satisfied with, and expect only reasonable dividends on,
their Stock, and to pay the same dividend these high-priced "Stocks must
make from three to four times the profits the Stono makes, and hence must
sell the same article higher.
The Stono grinds the bone and manufactures their acid upon the spot
paying no freights to Baltimore or ?'-orin and back again, which Companies
out of the State have to pay, and of course charge to the consumer.
The Stono Company manufacture, and recommend the use of, and pay
ment of freight on, nothing but fertilizers of the very highest grade, but if |
parties wish lower grades they will mix two Tons of their Dissolved Phos
phate with one ton of Pure Ground Phosphate, or equal portions of each,
and ship in sacks, to Cash orders, for Thirty Tons or upwards, without extra
charge. This will give a Phosphate at $21 or $18.50 per ton, and perhaps
of as high grade as many others on the market in Sacks.
It is desirab! - co get the Phosphate in the hands of consumers AS EARLY
AS POSSIBLE, as the best results are obtained by its remaining in compost
a ?sufficient time, the longer the better; and again, as spring.or planting
time approaches, the greater the difficulty in getting transportation.
That consumers may haul and compost it early, at this leisure time, or
ders will be.filled, and if p dd for in 60 or 90 days, nt the Cash prices.
Orders on time'will be filled at the same price now as next April. This
arrangement relieves the Company of the Storage and care of the Fertili
zers, and this amounts to the same thing to them as keeping it on hand to
supply an anticipated demand.
I ??rn apprehensive that the couxnarativelv VERY LOW PRICES and
SUPERIOR QUALITY of these fVrtili zera will cause such a demand that
the Company will not be able to supply those who put' off to the lust mo
ment ordering their supplies.
Many persons are decaying to e 1er that they may induce their -t?rtan?F
and croppers to use it. I imagine-they would have but little difficulty in
inducing thorn to use this feniliaer, if they would remind them that by its ose
crops tvOiiid grow/off lt plies in life ?pring. !,nd they would save the work
ing always required on un man ti rod' crops before they commence to. grow ;
Tliat the crop would shade tho ground and be laid by with '-ne or two
other workings le-s in the s-.mra-r.: That, it will ojjj n two or three weeks
earlier, und they could finish piekingdr for- veiy cold' freest ug weather :
That the co t per acre would only be from $1,25 to $2,25 ; That an increusyd
yield of thirty to forty pounds of Seed Cotton per acre would, at. ?p1geseilt
prices, repay them and save the two or three workings and earl}' picking ;
Thafy in addition, the f robab'iities were (if seasons were only moderately,
favorable.) that the increased yield would be from Throe to Six Hundred
Pounds Seed Cotton per acre, on ordinary land, which, nt present prices,
would pay from $17 to $34 for every $1,50 tu ?2.25 inventod in these Fer
tilizers.
This Fertilizer will "ot produce Rust on ei her Cotton or Grain Crops.
It is hiirhlv recommended for Small Grain. Trv it.

bors, whose cotton I haye seen, would in
licate, it will certainly not produce it. I
shall use it exclusively on my future crops,
[except perhaps a small amount of some
new kind as an experiment) till I find
something better ana cheaper.

I used one ton Stono Dissolved Phos
phate, composted with an equal weight cf
Cotton Seed; on sixteen acres Cotton, on
thin land- The field yrill yield ten bale?
CoUqn. Without manure the same field
would not have vielded half this amount.
Rows left through the field, without ma
nure, did not yield half as much as those
manured and adjoining. I applied a little
to Corn at the rate of about 100 pounds
per acre. Its effect was more marked than
i handful of Cotton Seed, on each side ol
lulls in thc rows adjoining.

EDGEFIELD, S. C., Nov. 20,1871.
I used this year on my Cotton one ton
Stono Dissolved Phosphate, and never have
I been better pleased with the yield. Es
pecially was this thc case when composted
with Cotton Seed and Stable Manure. The
beauty of this "ommercial fertilizer con
sists not only in its cheapness, bet espe
un'.tcr the Colton, consequently had K
apply it in tho siding furrow of the first
working. M. A. MAHNERT.

I used about 1100 pounds of Stono Dis
solved Phosphate, mixed with equal weights
cotton seed and stable-manure. I also
used 3 tons fcvorite?a?>d higher priced
Guanos. In two row's^dp by ?jjdd. across
a field 1-10 yards long, one manured with
the Phosphate Compost, the other with
higher priced. Compost, row yielded 21
pounds more seed cotton than the more
costly fertilizer. This would make about
SO pounds per aore in fayor of tho Com
post. The higher priced fertilizer used is
undoubtedly a good manure, but as the
Compost yielded as much as the Guano,
and enough over ?o more than y ay the
cost, it is hardly necessary for me to say I
shall usc no other next year. I also used
sonm
Cori]
of the Phosphate Compost under
with the most satisfactory results,
standing the drouth (a severe ono) bath
under Corn and Cotton, better than any
manure which I used.

I used one to:a Stono Dissolved Phos
